As a local Londoner this is a great bar to go to if your someone who is olderabove 25+ and want to mingle with the older crowd. However, there has been a lot of negative feedback from me and other people in the community that there has been an increase number of younger peoplemostly college students coming here now ever since late 2023 - 2024 which really sucks for the locals who have been going here for years now since the line to get in has been insane2 hour wait time at least if you are around Mac's Convivence store.nnDo you guys plan on doing something to fix the issue like expanding venue bigger or maybe charging people under +25 for cover?
I am honestly upset that I even have to make this review because I have enjoyed going to Joe Kools for awhile now but my most recent experience has left a sour taste in my mouth and I will never be returning.nTo begin, I am 100% going to take accountability for the fact that I had too much to drink and I am not making any excuses for it, however, this is a bar atmosphere so you would assume their staff are better equipped and trained to handle intoxicated people in other ways than harassment.nMy friend and I went into the washroom and entered the same stall together because I needed to throw up, mind you, there was NO security to be found in the washroom at this time, so it wasn’t an issue. I know the one person per stall rule but there was no one there to enforce it and I thought perhaps extenuating circumstances allowed for a little understanding and leeway but god was I ever wrong. After 10 minutes we exit the stall and the security guard instructs me that I need to leave to which I put up no fight because that was my plan all along. My friend and I then proceeded to leave the bathroom and she essentially chased us out even though we 100% complied with her order. I was making my way up the stairs thinking my friend was right behind me but the guard had begun interrogating her about why we were in the stall together when she clearly knew it was because I wasn’t feeling well, she definitely saw my knees on the ground and the backs of my shows so she knew exactly why my friend had come in the stall with me. I somehow managed to get in the Uber home without my friend, had security actually done their job and ensured the safety of their patrons that guard would have let my friend leave with me because you don’t leave drunk people alone. The guard then starts yelling at my friend before giving her a chance to explain herself and then brings her to a small room and instructs her to stay there and my friend asks her if she can call me to make sure I’m okay and the guard answers with “she seemed fine she left by herself”. A male guard then comes into the room where my friend has been essentially detained by someone who has absolutely no authority nor grounds to do such a thing, and tells her she’s able to leave after asking her why she was in there.nI think what makes this situation even scarier is the fact that this is a woman’s washroom with a female security guard but in no way is it a safe space for women whatsoever, because the guard feels the need to intimidate girls. I have read other reviews similar to mine so I know this is not a one off experience and it disappoints me that Joe Kool’s has no interest in giving their employees adequate training, it seems like even basic smart serve principles about dealing with and identifying signs of intoxication go out the window once you get into that washroom. It’s not about safety, it’s about fear.
40 years of lousy service, lousy food and warm beer I can't wait til I go back nHaving said all of that, the Nachos are best of class
Staff harassed me. I had two drinks and was a little tipsy and she forced me to leave, she wouldn’t let me find my friends so we could walknhome together. she made me walk home alone where i was followed and was scared. i told her she could come with me to find my friends but she wouldn’t let me find them and forced me to walk home alone which is incredibly dangerous. she was a short black woman. I was not even drunk, just typsy and she forced me to leave alone and risked my safety. will be reporting her.
Great place to relax/meet with friends after a long working day or week! Cool design, relaxed atmosphere. Service isn't fast, we were waiting for our food about 20-25 mins during lunch time hours. But food was really good!!! Wish we have more places like this one!
